Giddyup!

Last weekend Sarah Gray was invited to a birthday party for one of her school friends. It was at a beautiful farm in Advance..and the weather was so perfect, we could have not asked for a better day. Katherine stayed with her grandparents in Winston Salem for the afternoon. I don't think I could have handled two girls running around the farm. The owner of the farm let each child ride a horse. I thought for sure SG would be scared, for I remember last year she would not get near a pony also brought to a birthday party for entertainment. She hopped right up on that horse (it was a huge horse!) and held on with a huge grin. At the end of her ride, she received a blue ribbon as a prize...she was so very proud. Maybe horse riding lessons aren't too far off for us?

Cry Baby.

Katherine has always been a very happy and relaxed, go with the flow child. However, recently, when things don't go her way, she has decided to add a little drama into her life. Right when she tured 18 months, she started to scream when Sarah Gray would take something from her, or when she did not get her way. Now she does this thing where she plops down on the floor and cries. This only lasts about 2 minutes or so (I think its so funny and I have to walk out of the room and laugh). Once she realizes she is not getting any attention, she gets up and goes on her merry way like nothing ever happens.
